π Whatβs New
You can now create agents using standard foundational models β no fine-tuning required.
Previously, Navigable AI supported only fine-tuned models (optionally enhanced with RAG grounding). With this release, teams can choose from three flexible training modes when creating an AI assistant:
Fine-Tuned Agents β deeply customized and trained for your product.
RAG Agents β retrieval-augmented for real-time, grounded responses.
Simple (Foundational) Agents β quick setup using base models with custom prompts.
This update gives you the freedom to start fast, scale intelligently, and fine-tune when ready, making it easier to match your AIβs complexity with your use case.

π° Cost Estimator Tool
Weβve added a new Cost Estimator to help you plan your AI strategy effectively.
Quickly compare pricing across training modes β Fine-Tuned, RAG, and Foundational β to choose the right balance between performance and budget.

π‘ Why It Matters
Faster onboarding: Launch assistants in minutes without needing training data.
Cost-efficient experimentation: Test conversational flows and prompts before committing to fine-tuning.
Scalable architecture: Move seamlessly from foundational to fine-tuned or RAG-enhanced setups as your needs evolve.
π Improvements & Fixes
Streamlined agent creation interface with clearer setup steps.
Improved backend support for hybrid (Fine-tuned + RAG) configurations.
Minor performance optimizations and bug fixes across the dashboard.
β¨ Try It Out
Head to your Navigable AI dashboard and create your next assistant with a foundational model β itβs the fastest way to get started.
Weβd love your feedback as we continue expanding how teams train and deploy AI on Navigable.
